"Eset NOD32"

PC Advisor
Published on: 4/2007
On test: Eset NOD32
When it comes to proactive protection, Eset's NOD32 is the hands-down winner. In our tests it caught 79 percent of unknown malware samples when using one-month-old signature files. The next-closest app, Bit-Defender, was a distant 61 percent.    More

BitDefender came close to a PC Advisor Gold Award. It did an excellent job of detecting malware, with a 96 percent catch rate. And it ranked second in our proactive-detection tests, behind Eset's NOD32, using month-old signature files, nabbing 61 percent of new malware samples.    More

On test: Panda Software Antivirus 2007
Panda Antivirus 2007's middle-of-the-road detection results in our tests, inadequate default settings and poor disinfection performance offset its solid features.    More

"NOD32 2.7"

Pocket-lint.co.uk
Published on: 3/2007
On test: Eset NOD32 2.7
Who or what is NOD32? To the average person in the street this may well be a realistic question but don’t let the name of lack of profile deter you, as this is one of the best online defence tools we’ve come across in a long time. What it has in its favour are two things: it’s fast and it’s light.    More

"Eset NOD32 Antivirus System 2.7"

PC Advisor
Published on: 2/2007
On test: Eset NOD32 2.7
NOD32's claim to fame is its sophisticated heuristics-based detection of malware; it doesn't try to match virus signatures but rather looks for suspicious activity. This means NOD32 is much better placed to deal with zero-day attacks. And it makes for a lean, mean AV machine - the application won't impose a noticeable burden on even lowly PCs.    More

Personal Computer World
Published on: 2/2007
On test: Webroot Software Spy Sweeper With AntiVirus

"Tesco Software"

Computer Buyer & Upgrades
Issue: 2/2007
On test: Tesco Personal Finance, Tesco Internet Security, Tesco Easy Record, Tesco Antivirus & Antispyware
Tesco's foray into the world of softawre distribution isn't as crazy as it seems - the company already has its own internet service and an online store through which it sells computers and peripherals. The first six Tesco software products have been brought in from outside sources, then re-packaged and re-branded.    More

"Sophos Endpoint Security"

PC Pro
Issue: 1/2007
On test: Sophos Endpoint Security
The concept of endpoint security has been with us for many years. Up until recently, software solutions have been strictly in the enterprise domain, but we're now starting to see products aimed at the SMB. Trend Micro moved in this year with its CSS suite and this month it's the turn of Sophos and its Endpoint Security (EPS).    More

"Grisoft ewido anti-spyware 4.0"

PC Advisor
Published on: 9/2006
On test: Grisoft / Ewido anti-spyware 4.0
Ewido is now being bundled with Grisoft's AVG Anti-Virus, as well as being sold as a standalone product. Although the program's interface has been noticeably improved, it's still very text-heavy.    More

PC Advisor
Published on: 8/2006

Scanning the entire PC is a time-consuming business in the first instance. Spy Sweeper was quick and should halve the scan time on a cluttered computer.    More
